Hidden Corner

 Chapter 600 600 World Four

 Old Buck coughed and hurried towards the study on the third floor.

After walking through two corridors and passing four rooms, he quickly came to the largest room on the third floor.

 This is a study room, to be precise, a renovated study room.

Baron Carlos transformed the original living room on the third floor into a huge study room to store the books he collected everywhere.

 The territory’s money, except for daily expenses, is all spent here every year.

Those merchants even established a team to collect books for Baron Carlos, just to earn a high annual expenditure on books.

In response, the territory doesn’t even have the money to expand its army, and everything is just enough for basic maintenance.

 Thinking of this, Old Buck felt tired.

Walking to the study, the door was ajar, and he immediately saw Carlos sitting behind the desk.

Lately, Melissa always likes to run towards Mrs. Lisa. That woman is a famous socialite in the nearby territory.

This seems to be the limit of flesh and blood in this world.

Li Chengyi has been practicing spiritual practice, but actually has no friends.

The family crest on the gorgeous heavy armor shone brightly in the candlelight. It was a majestic and beautiful stag.

Standing outside the study, Old Buck looked at Carlos. The baron was just sitting there, feeling an unspeakable sense of oppression emanating from him.

"Sir, the invitation sent by Viscount Tislan is for the adult salon. You also know that as nominal subordinate nobles under his command, we must give this face. Otherwise, we may be considered to be rebelling against our superiors. As a result, he was targeted and even hostile by Tisi Lan. "Old Buck has been feeling better and better recently, and the previous illnesses seem to be weakening and disappearing, and even the aging of his body has been delayed a lot.

 This is a special personal diary given to him by a friend some time ago.

The record is of a low-level traveling mage named Andreen. Although it does not have any meditation methods, it contains a lot of information about the mage.

 In order to enhance his own strength, he once again began to collect information about mages.

 Old Buck was helpless when he heard this.

“Uncle Buck came so early, what’s the matter?” Li Chengyi stood up and asked.

 “That’s good.” Li Chengyi nodded.

At the age of fifteen, his strength has completely exceeded the limits of a knight and has entered a new level.

 “That’s good then, I won’t disturb you anymore.” He bowed and prepared to leave.

 Because modification meant subverting the ancestors of his family, but that's what Carlos did.

  Family crests should only be designed when they are created. This is tradition and is passed down from ancestors, and few people will modify it.

 The image of the mage became increasingly clear in his mind.

“By the way, did Uncle Buck’s mother go to Mrs. Lisa’s house again?” Li Chengyi suddenly asked.

Except for an institution without real power like the House of Elders, the other powerful nobles would not blame a territorial noble for such a trivial matter.

Such bravery has ensured that Black Castle is now firmly in the position of ruler of the territory.

 After all, this salon was nominally a coming-of-age ceremony, but in reality it was meant to select husbands for the two daughters of the viscount.

 Over the past few years, he has read a large number of books of all kinds.

This fifteen-year-old young baron is now tall and well-proportioned. His smooth black hair hangs down to his lower back and is simply **** with a hair rope. He wears thick silver armor covering his vital joints at all times and at all times.

'I heard that he has started one-to-many training in the school grounds. Even Milton has to join forces with multiple soldiers to put pressure on him.' When thinking of this information, old Buck felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart. Peace of mind.

He forced his decrees through without a care, and did not respond to inquiries from the Imperial House of Lords.

"Well, I will go." Li Chengyi took the invitation and checked the time. "I just happened to have finished reading the book in my hand. I heard that there is a mage in the territory of Viscount Tisilan to serve him. Maybe I can Go over and ask for advice.”

 Watching the other party salute again and exit the room, he sat down, opened the drawer, took out a yellowed book, and flipped through it again.

 “Is it Uncle Buck? Come in.”

Since the death of the last baron, the Oklahoma Territory has not received such courtesy for a long time.

 This is the new coat of arms of the Okla family, which was forcibly modified by Carlos and notified to the empire.

 So in order to protect himself, he customized a full set of heavy armor, long-handled weapons, and large shields.

 But when he was helpless, no matter how hard he trained, his body was stuck at a position equivalent to 6.7 times that of Knight Milton, and he could no longer move.

 Even if he uses flower language to strengthen it, it is meaningless.

At this time, Li Chengyi in the study seemed to notice Old Buck standing outside the door for a long time, put down the book and said loudly.

"Yes, they specifically stated that they hope you will participate in person. This is quite a face-saving move." Old Buck said with a smile.

 Carlos is good everywhere, but his pursuit of a mage is always incomprehensible.

The cold and handsome face is indifferently flipping through the books in his hand, and the burly and strong body is wrapped in armor, giving him a heroic spirit and a special temperament like a newly adult lion.

 Although he knew very well that the invitation was probably due to the baron's handsome face.

 This gave him more energy to serve the territory, and he felt much lighter.

“I understand, you need to make time to participate, right?” Li Chengyi nodded.

“Don’t worry, the old lady mainly attended concerts in the past.” Old Buck replied.

To be able to temper his body to the limit of flesh and blood in this world at the age of fifteen, he has put in a lot of effort.

Others at this age are not even ordinary warriors, at most they are just kids with some adult strength.

The opposite **** who is still pursuing poetry and beauty, even if they are more precocious, are just immature and ignorant, comprehending the life experience taught by the elders.

 There is no one like him.

 And this so-called friend is actually a book friend when buying books. Because at a book auction, two people almost got angry over a book. Later, the organizer came up with a way to calm down the dispute by asking both parties to exchange books.

Unexpectedly, the two of them never met each other, so they continued to exchange books and exchange ideas with each other, and became more and more familiar with each other.

 According to this friend's description, she should also go to the Viscounty of Tislan to attend the salon.

This made Li Chengyi want to go there in person to exchange more information with him, especially about the mage. ‘I have collected almost all the basic information around me. The largest knowledge system in the world should be in the hands of the mage. If I want to quickly integrate it and reach the point where I can understand everything, I must get the accumulation from the mage as soon as possible. ’

 In his current Yuan Shen Sword Palace, the fire in the sword furnace has become increasingly hotter and more intense.

 A large amount of cognition, thinking and research on various aspects of the world have allowed him to gradually construct a prototype of the world's cognition over the years.

 This is the construction of a world view.

With this construction, the fire in the sword furnace began to become more and more prosperous. It was obvious that this path was on the right track.

 But now, as the number of books becomes fewer and fewer, and the content becomes more and more repetitive, the growth of the hearth fire begins to slow down.

 So, he urgently needs to open new channels.

This salon is an opportunity, an opportunity to get in touch with mages.

 After determining the target, four days later, Li Chengyi took a carriage and headed for Tisilan with several Black Fort guards.

 After several days of long journey, they successfully arrived at Xiangguo City, where the salon was held.

 A small city famous for its fragrant fruits.

 The size of the city is equivalent to three small towns, and it is considered the most prosperous place near here. But for Li Chengyi, the scenery is secondary, and collecting books in the city is the key.

 After purchasing a few books he had never seen before, he took a car to a large manor in the suburbs to attend a salon.

 Nobles of all sizes brought their children to attend.

Horse carriages of various grades parked in a row outside the manor, accompanied by soldiers in small groups, drinking wine and bragging in the snow.

The fire from the distant watchtower added a touch of light to the surrounding night.

 In the manor, nobles whom Li Chengyi didn't know at all came and went, drinking and talking about topics that were completely uninteresting to him.

Anyway, it was just to take care of errands, so he went to meet his friend later. Li Chengyi was too lazy to deal with it, so he simply found a corner on the first floor, sat down on the balcony, and drank juice slowly by himself.

Music continued to float out from the living room on the left, occasionally mixed with the laughter of guests.

The little kids were running around, making mischief from time to time, and then crying when they were scolded.

 The noisy sound made Li Chengyi frown slightly.

He simply turned his gaze to the night sky outside, and soon fell asleep slightly.

 It was undoubtedly rude to sleep in such a salon, but he was only fifteen years old and still a child.

 Children can always be tolerated, right?

Just when he was taking a nap, some of the boys and girls gathered together in the living room had already noticed him.

“Is that Baron Carlos of the Okla family??” A beautiful girl wearing a beige dress and flesh-colored stockings looked at Li Chengyi curiously and asked her companions in a low voice.

“Yes, the guy who changed his family crest by himself, I didn’t expect him to be quite handsome.” Another girl with freckles in a green dress laughed softly. "The figure is also very good. They are much better looking than Jayne."

"Hey, can't you compare other people? You have to compare me." Jayne on the side suddenly stopped.

"Being strong doesn't mean you can fight. Can you look at people with more depth? Don't be so superficial. You have a good-looking face. Can the enemy give you one more blow on the battlefield?"

"He was sitting alone on the balcony and didn't come to greet us at all. He obviously didn't take us seriously." Another handsome young man with a strong bookish air said lightly.

 He was not wrong, Li Chengyi did have this idea.

“But he has a better figure than you. With that kind of height, in a real fight, you might not be your opponent, right?” The girl in a beige dress said with a smile.

"Mina, do you want to listen to what you are saying? Besides, if you praise him so much, people will look down on you. Most of the young people who come here are not here for Alice and the two sisters?" the handsome young man said calmly. .

“Is it so difficult to recognize the excellence of others? Are all men so stubborn, just like you and Jayne?” Mina frowned.

"I heard that he likes reading. I collect and buy books. If you like it, you can borrow this to talk to him. Do you think he pays attention to you?" the handsome young man said lazily. "It just so happens that we can bring a powerful nobleman to our Youth Association."

Mina's eyes suddenly lit up, and without saying a word, she straightened her chest and walked towards Li Chengyi.

 But there was someone faster than him, so Jayne rushed over and stood in front of Li Chengyi.

"I heard that Baron Carlos likes reading books and things related to mages. I have a blue star stone here that is the favorite of mages. It is a souvenir left to me by my mother. I wonder if Baron is interested in having a one-on-one fight with me. field?"

Li Chengyi's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened and looked at the little boy who suddenly rushed over.

Hmm, fourteen years old, with short curly brown hair and a very stubborn expression.

 What do you want to do?

 Come here to be beaten?

Can’t you see that your arms are almost as thick as his thighs?

“Blue Star Stone?” Li Chengyi opened his mouth and said, “You gave me a gift in disguise. Do you need my help with anything?”

 In his opinion, any fight is fake. This little kid can beat a group of people with one hand, so the other party is looking for a reason to give him a gift.

Jayne originally rushed forward in anger and blurted out his words, but he regretted it a little. After all, he also saw the girth of the other person's thick arms.

 But when he heard this, and in front of the girl he had a crush on, his face immediately became bloodshot.

 “You are insulting me! Insulting a future knight! I will fight you.”

 Poof.

His mouth was tightly covered by a handsome young man behind him, and he did not say the last word.

 “Sorry, he just drank too much.”

 A group of teenagers dragged Jayne away and forced him to cover his mouth to prevent him from speaking.

Li Chengyi looked at this scene and was speechless. Then he looked at the beautiful girl beside him. Knowing what was going on, he was speechless and closed his eyes, preparing to continue to rest.

“I don’t have any books about mages, but there are always griffins in my territory. They are one of the favorite mounts of mages. They are said to have spell-like abilities. Are you interested?” Mina suddenly spoke out.

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengyi, who had closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her with bright eyes.

  Studying the supernatural creatures that make up this world is undoubtedly a way to greatly increase his progress in lighting the divine fire.
